Love is the ultimate expression of the will to live.

Man cannot produce a single work without the assistance of the slow, assiduous, corrosive worm of thought.

Eugenio Montale

Harriet Ann Jacobs

I keep dreaming of a future, a future with a long and healthy life, not lived in the shadow of cancer but in the light.

Patrick Swayze

Aldous Huxley

Happiness is the light on the water. The water is cold and dark and deep.

William Maxwell

If Romney explains why where we are with Obama is unacceptable, why whither we are tending is even worse - and why his own alternative path forward is superior - then we trust the American people to make the right choice in November.

Bill Kristol

I see architecture not as Gropius did, as a moral venture, as truth, but as invention, in the same way that poetry or music or painting is invention.

Michael Graves

Eliza Cook

I always wanted to be a mom.

Kate Hudson

If there were a science of human beings it would be anthropology that aims at understanding the totality of experience through structural context.

Wilhelm Dilthey

I always wanted to be a Californian. In my wildest dreams, I always liked California - it's the place where oranges grows on trees! Fruit just falls off the trees.

Eric Burdon

Bertrand Russell
